In an uncertain, complex “Big Data” world it’s the company with the best intelligence that wins. Delivering accurate, timely intelligence requires a well-trained analytic team that can gauge and manage risks and opportunities and communicate effectively with management. The Analytic Edge can provide that training, empowering both management and analysts to improve their analytic skills and the impact of their assessments. Drawing on 36+ years in the US Intelligence Community and 8,000 hours of classroom experience, The Analytic Edge asserts that high impact assessments do not come from Big Data, outside “experts,” or intuition alone: but rather a company’s success hinges on the ability to work collaboratively within and across components to integrate and transform the full range of sources into “actionable intelligence.” The courses below are built around best analytic practices used for decades to produce all-source intelligence for senior US Government and military officials. Lessons learned are immediately applicable across business areas to assess competitors, identify and gauge risks and opportunities, and drive strategic planning. Content can be customized. O Better Decisions Faster in an Uncertain World introduces an approach to analysis that efficiently leverages expertise and diverse views to identify, measure, and mitigate risk, test judgments, and assess opportunities. O Glimpse the Future: How Intelligence Analysis Drives Better Business Decisions is a half-day version that introduces clients to the power of this unique approach. O A Seminar in Analytic Tradecraft, specifically for analysts, this course can significantly improve the focus, timeliness, and impact of analytic assessments whether tracking near-term risks or assessing longer term trends. NEW! Beginning in early 2015 offerings will expand to include writing for intelligence analysis and strengthening briefing skills based on best practices in the intelligence community and industry.
